19. Minnesota Vikings(No. 22; Up 3; W, 17-13 vs. Was)
Adrian Peterson suffered an injury but the Vikings won the first game for interim coach Leslie Frazier.

20. Seattle Seahawks(No. 18; Down 2; L, 42-24 vs. KC)
Got pounded at home by the Chiefs because they could not stop the run or defend WR Dwayne Bowe.

21. Jacksonville Jaguars(No. 19; Down 2; L, 24-20 vs. NYG)
Luck ran out for the Jaguars as they could not stage a comeback to beat the Giants on the road. Maurice Jones-Drew had 113 rushing yards in the loss.

22. Dallas Cowboys(No. 20; Down 2; L, 30-27 vs. NO)
Had the lead late in the game but could not stop the Saints on the final drive.

23. Oakland Raiders(No. 23; No Change; L, 33-17 vs. Mia)
Embarrassed at home by the Miami Dolphins, the Raiders had just 16 net rushing yards.

24. Cleveland Browns(No. 24; No Change; W, 24-23 vs. Car)
Managed to beat the Saints and Patriots this year but almost loss to the lowly Panthers. That’s what I call parity.

25. Cincinnati Bengals(No. 25; No Change; L, 26-10 vs. NYJ)
Lost on the road to the Jets on Thanksgiving evening. Carson Palmer had just 135 passing yards and two touchdowns in the loss.

26. St. Louis Rams(No. 28; Up 2; W, 36-33 vs. Den)
Beat the Broncos on the road behind 308 passing yards and three touchdowns from Sam Bradford, his first career 300-yard game.

Knocked off the Cardinals on the road. Brian Westbrook rushed for 136 yards in the victory.

Staged a late comeback, but the Broncos could not beat the Rams at home.

29. Buffalo Bills(No. 30; Up 1; L, 19-16 vs. Pit)
Looked impressive in the overtime loss to the Steelers. Steve Johnson had a chance to win the game but dropped a sure touchdown in the end zone.

30. Arizona Cardinals(No. 29; Down 1; L, 27-6 vs. SF)
Cardinals fans have bigger reasons to worry about than what Derek Anderson does on the sideline… such as, what he’s doing on the field in the first place.

31. Detroit Lions(No. 31; No Change; L, 45-24 vs. NE)
Jumped out to an early Thanksgiving day lead but were eventually overmatched by a better Patriots team.

32. Carolina Panthers(No. 32; No Change; L, 24-23 vs. Cle)
Had a lead against the Browns but just couldn’t close the deal. Former Panther Jake Delhomme threw for 245 yards against his old team.
